Alignment of the GAR Templates 7 and 8 with the templates used by the European Commission
Question

According to the European Commission, in the COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2023/2486 of 27 June 2023, information on the six objectives must be reported. In addition, there are differences between the EC and Pillar 3 GAR templates, such as the absence of rows for financial corporations not subject to NFRD in Pillar 3, the presence of an "Of which adaptation" in column J, which is redundant as the objective in Pillar 3 is adaptation to climate change, and the presence of columns for the use of proceeds in the EC template, whereas the columns in Pillar 3 are for specialised lending. When will the Pillar 3 ESG reporting templates (6, 7, 8 and 9) be updated in line with those of the EC?

Background on the question

When Pillar 3 ESG was implemented, the GAR templates were updated and aligned with those of the European Commission, but these have been updated (including the new environmental objectives and the removal of inconsistencies), but the Pillar 3 templates have not been changed.

Rationale for rejection

This question has been rejected because the objective of the Q&A tool is not to answer questions that put into doubt the correctness of the legal framework or try to lobby for a modification of the text. The Single Rule Book Q&A tool has been established to provide explanations and non-binding interpretations on questions relating to the practical application or implementation of the provisions of legislative acts referred to in Article 1(2) of the EBA’s founding Regulation, as well as associated delegated and implementing acts, and guidelines and recommendations, adopted under these legislative acts.

For further information on the purpose of this tool and on how to submit questions, please see 'Additional background and guidance for asking questions'.
